What is the value of $$\int_{-1}^{t} \left(\frac{3}{2} - 2 \, |x| \right) \,dx? $$ I get confused integrating with the absolute value.
I forgot to mention $t>0$.

Hint: The only way to integrate an expression involving $|x|$ is to break it into integrals over intervals where $x$ is positive and where it is negative, then replace $|x|$ by $x$ in the first case and by $(-x)$ in the second.
